The shoes are awesome and this is not the first time I have ordered from this site. My son in law has huge feet so we usually order from here and he loves his vans. (size 14) He loves the shoes and I couldn\'t believe we received them in 2 days. Excellent shoes, excellent service.

Very easy to order with Zappos and got my order in time for Christmas. Product was packaged properly as well so that nothing was damaged. Will definitely be ordering from Zappos again.

My son has a very narrow foot and this style fits him perfectly. A surprisingly long lasting shoe as well. Doesn\'t provide a lot of support for a work shoe but some kids prefer style to comfort. This is his 4th pair, we sure hope the black/black doesn\'t ever get discontinued as this had become a traditional Christmas Gift. Very happy with the style comfort and fit.

Your company is by far the most efficient on-line-to-snail-mail operation I have ever encountered. Over the last two or more years each and every item I've ordered from you seems to magically appear on my doorstep within "minutes" of placing my order (well, maybe within a day or two).

These shoes are great. I have the same pair in another color. Only criticism, the plastic heel cup/support isn\'t the strongest and broke after a year, but these are pretty cheap so it\'s hard to complain.

These shoes are terrific. This is the third pair of shoes i have purchased from Zappos. This pair was for my youngest son who has to have the latest styles in skater shoe wear. I get to have the quality and brand name I want at a price I can afford. The other two pairs of shoes I have purchased have been for my paraplegic son who has to have wide shoes to fit with his braces. These shoes have stood up to the test of time and the quality has been outstanding! Thanks Zappos for giving me quality wear at a great price.

Who can please a Teenager? Zappos can! I have purchased the same style of Vans for my son repeatedly for almost 2 years. No complaints, only comfort. I love that my previous purchases are in my history and I simply have to move a new pair to my shopping cart. Zappos customer service is phenomenal. Their concept of customer care is unparalleled in my experience with internet shopping. My active family of 3 boys can go through shoes like wildfire! Thank you, Zappos, for overnight shipping, easy returns, fantastic selections, and Customer Care agents that I can understand!

This is the second pair of Vans Authentic Core Classics I've bought, and I love them just as much as I love my other pair in red! I have wide feet, and these shoes are perfect because they have a little extra width. I previously tried Converse, but they were just too narrow and uncomfortable. I wear these shoes almost every day, and they are always comfortable. They also hold up fairly well (I've even worn them in the pouring rain; when I did that with my Converse, I ended up with wet feet).

Best pair of shoes period. Fit was perfect. Super comfortable, and go great with jeans. I got the true white ones and plan to order another pair or two. Gotta get a pair. You won't be disappointed. Price is fair, too.

Relative to shoes in fashion, Vans Authentics are an American staple. No sane girl or boy would ever come home without knowing two or three pairs anxiously awaited their return, like loyal pets. Vans made these shoes with love, not engineering. They won\'t magically augment posture, but they might just augment your posterity.

I absolutely love these shoes. These are my first pair of Vans and I got them in red. I\'ve been loyal to Chucks for years, but I think I have a new love. They are so comfortable and cute. I\'ll definitely be getting more.

Reviewer: Paul S from Central California
Overall:5 stars   Comfort:4 stars   Look:5 stars

These shoes are excellent. For some reason, they had to be a full size smaller than all the other shoes I wear so they would fit. In any case, though, the craftsmanship of the shoe is immediately obvious; I think I could use these for longer than I have been able to use any other pair of shoes so far. Oh, but you do have to break them in some.

Once You Go Vans You Can't Go Back - I am a huge Jordan fan and I own almost every Jordan shoe made, but to this point I had not tried Vans. I just bought my first pair 3 weeks ago, and at first it took a while to figure out my size. But noe that I have been wearing this pair I love them. I can't stop myslef from wearing them everyday whether they go with the outfit or not. And I rarely ever have that problem because the black vans are able to be worn with any otufit.

Hi. I usually do not send out emails like feedback, but I just want to say thanks for a great sale from your business. I take a very large size (13 EEEE) and ordered a pair of Nike sneakers. I received my UPS delivery this afternoon and the sneakers fit perfectly! The price was right and it is good to see a business not gouging to sell items for customers like myself that are hard to fit. I will be back for more when the time and need comes. Also, thanks for having PayPal to purchase my sneakers. Regards, Gary W.
